  Advanced Lightning

  Posted by Jim Ives on July 30, 2008 at 4:51 am

  Hi Everyone!
  Can anyone tell me why the advanced lightning dosen’t animate? I do a ram preview and it dosen’t “dance around” like the regular lightning effect. I even render part of the video and it still just sits there!

  Thanks!

  Ok thanks I’ll play with it and see if I can get it to work the way I want it too.

  Thanks for the tip!

  For what it’s worth, I *HIGHLY* recommend FXHome’s PowerPlug plugin over the built-in AE lightning effects.
